if a 5 pound laptop hurts your back the problem isn't the laptop.
Is the split controller "combinable" and works detached? I mean this thing has a kickstand and I guess it would work better as a "portable" rather than a handheld
I will wait for the surface event.
Nice Edison motors hat
12:22 those fans sound like my old 2015 MacBook 😅
theory : laptop reviewer goes on about chassis flexing, keyboard feel, touchpad feel. manufacturer listen : metal chassis, premium mechanical keyboard, smooth feel touch pad. price goes high as fuck. actual consumer : can't afford. or, most of the time not feasible. why you want to check chassis flex? it's a laptop, not a trampoline.
Atrocious keyboard. Tiny cursor keys, no function keys.. no dedicated page up / down keys.. is this a kid's toy?
Alex, don’t apologize for calling out crappy products and helping consumers make informed decisions. Nice review.
Dafuq Dell. You have the audacity to remove a complete row of keys on a huge 16 inch laptop, that too the XPS?
Hp has terrible names
Wtf is this? When the announced dell xps 9700 on ces 2020 I instantly knew that was it and just waited to order it day 1. Got it in July and still using to this day and I still can't get enough of it's premium and high quality feel! I am considering an upgrade because why not it's been almost 4 long years and this is what I'm supposed to replace it with??? Man no chance it's either gonna be 3rd series or not dell at all like how do you mess up 4 year old design 🤦🏽♂️
The escape key alone is reason enough to avoid this. Reject this nonsense.
Maria telling the truth saves this video honestly
Not surprised by this move by Dell. They screwed up alienware, precision and XPS. It's unfortunate they couldn't add Apple m3 SoC in xps 16
almost in all aspects Dell is lagging, I don't see a point to buy any off the Dell laptops, Asus, Lenovo and HPhave better product and better price, Dell wake up you are going to loose the game
flat screen ?
Honestly this thing seems awesome, I just wish it had an AMD or Nvidia GPU instead of the intel arc stuff
Nah I don't think you were too hard on it. I like the previous gen better. The only redeeming qualities of this model is the slight spec bump in the refresh rate of the panel and wifi 7 and that is not saying much. At that price point go look at a precision machine. It is clear now why the precision line diverged from the xps line. Would like to see Alex review one of those. I saw the writing on the wall and I am glad I upgraded when I did because I would be sad if this was dells offering. Would be interesting to see how the x1 extreme would compare. I wonder who is actually going to by this?
oh wow... your tablet sprouted some joycons & produced a surface keyboard-- that's so neat!
Dell, please stop, I loved the XPS but these suck. Give them 4 years to reverse course.... sigh
No function keys means the guys who developed this have never done any actual coding or excel work...
Any laptop over 2kg is a big no for me in 2024.
wow
well at that price apple m1 air looking too good at 650$ where i live
yeah dongles. guys it's so hard to put those 2 ports in our 16 inch chassis believe us! we will give you stupid dongle for that.
I had a Dell that encountered TPM is not detected directly after losing warranty. Lost all respect and will not buy another product. I got the xps 13 9305
Dude, I'm not getting a Dell...
Can't remember it might've been an HP (15-20 years ago I think it was one of the first systems to use touch buttons) I failed a pre-test because I wiped away some dust and bumped the Wi-Fi button which crashed the software which was running over the network. I like my Touch Bar but nondescript touch buttons yeah bad idea.
I like that microSD cards are small but I also hate that they're small. I almost sent one flying across the room when I hit the eject button on a camera. I much rather have it in an adapter in a camera. Then was the other time when between walking from the front of the room to the back of the room to get the card I dropped it! And of course I needed to get the clip off because we had an issue with the stream so I was trying to re-upload it before the next session. And you also don't get the write protect switch!
I totally agree, they have ruined the XPS lineup. But would you recommend the XPS 17 over the 16 which retails around $2000 USD with the 3060?
A legion with a pressure sensitive touchscreen and stylus support would be the dream laptop for me. Imagine the possibilities. Zbrush with a stylus😭
START whit the PRICE !!!
It’s ok ill just get the 17
Dude you're getting a Dell
Full G16 review soon?
I think dell lose his mind to make dump thing and price is totally f+++k if i wanna buy dell xps i would like to buy old models because of structure wise and quality wise is good
I got the new XPS 13 and the thermal system is so bad that I can only use it for about 30 min before the computer needs to take a break to cool down…
No function keys no buy
nope, no more dell, thanks. i haven‘t had a notebook ever lose keys as much as my xps 15. plus many different dell notebooks at work.
Precision 5590/5690 is the better way to go than the new "XPS"
For such a big chasis, you'd hope that they would fit at least a full size hdmi port or some USB type A port. But no. They had to follow apple's approach.
It's a joke that you compare the 16 9640 with the 9530 when clearly the 16 replaces the 17" 9730. If you have to tell bad things for a product do it properly and clearly. So just fyi 9340 was 9320, 9440 was 9530 and last 9640 was 9730. Dell decided to remove from its lineup (at least for now) the 15 and 17 inches xps.
why dont u just remake this video entirely lmaooo
18:28 fin.
why are they reverse apple ing us with the touchbar style function keys
I think HP is trying to be Feminism... first they named "OMEN", now they are pushing "Transcend"....
cool
I wonder how would a 60w rtx 4070 mobile compare with a 4060 mobile with full power available, 115w. My asus zephyrus g16 from 2023 is having the whole 115w plus 25w boost available for the gpu which i believe might give better results than a bottlenecked 4070?
Do a sound test with zephyrus g14 and xps 16
